How many milligrams of DHA &amp; EPA in each capsule? My vet says this is very important to know, and the information is not on the label.
30947
The label says each capsule is 1100 milligrams. EPA is a minimum of 18% or 198 mg. DHA is a minimum of 12% or 132 mg.

Each vegetarian capsule contains 250 mg DHA. So two capsules would be 500 mg of DHA.

I am not a doctor, researcher, or traditionalist. I did read up on your request and there is more information than this space will allow. I suggest you read @ http://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/in-the-zone/201204/what-are-the-real-differences-between-epa-and-dha, there is alot of info there. Basically the body needs both of these elements. Happy health!

With all due respect, that's like asking which is more important: Vitamin C or Vitamin D?https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/in-the-zone/201204/what-are-the-real-differences-between-epa-and-dha

Hi Caspurr. Its me again. I just thought I let you know that I was referring to the Carlson Labs Elite Omega-3 Gems (700 mg of EPA & DHA per softgel capsule), and not the Carlson Super Omega-3 Gems (500 mg of EPA & DHA per softgel capsule). Sorry about the ambiguity on the last response. The Elite Gems are about $3 more expensive for only 120 softgels, 10 softgels less that the Carlson Super Omega-3 fish oil.

The product label does not breakdown the content by EPA and DHA. It does state that the total Fish oil is 2000mg and the total Omega 3 fatty acids are 600 mg. It also does state that it has EPA and DHA but does not give a content breakdown for either. Hope that helps you!

All the components are listed by mg and iu, such as 250 mg each of L-Carnitine and L-Taurine, the 2 most important etc., not mg for each capsule. Directions state for cats, 1 capsule daily and for dogs, 1 capsule per 30 lbs. of body weight daily. I suggest contacting Vetri Science, either online at www.vetriscience.com or by phone at 1-800-882-9993, for further info. I've done so and they have replied and been helpful.

It says on the label that it's concentrated by molecular distillation (which 2yrs ago everybody was saying was the best!) so there probably are some EEs. The top 2 Google (TM) hits are diametrically opposed on whether it actually matters: http://www.ascentahealth.com/health-science/science-articles/fish-oil-triglycerides-vs-ethyl-esters-as-nature-intended http://www.sciencebasedhealth.com/Fish-Oil-EE-vs-TG-omega-3s-which-is-better-W119.aspx The Ascenta website has a test you can do: you put 20ml of your fish oil in a styrofoam cup. EEs will leak through it in 10min, triglycerides won't. Tempted to do it, because now you've got me curious, but I wonder how many of these capsules I'll have to squeeze open to get 20ml? I picked these because I wanted buckets of DHA for my brain. I'd like to see some quantitative data: for instance, one of these supposedly has 500mg DHA, whereas maybe a triglyceride one only has 80. So if this DHA is only, say, half as bioavailable as the triglyceride, I'm getting 250mg from this one which is STILL better than 80. Also, even the EEs-are-bad articles seem to say it only actively harms people who have certain conditions or are taking certain other meds - though I admit I skimmed, because the whole "last year's Underdog's Super Energy Pill is this year's poison" thing gives me a fatal Out-of-Patience Error.

I think the problem being referred to here is that the bottom half of the Supplement Facts on the bottle lists additional ingredients under "Synergistic and proprietary function" with a grand total of 692 mg. However, this section contains no specific, individual ingredient amounts. It's this area of ingredients that contains the DHA, GABA, Bacopin and lots more, but with no specific measurements.
